Sun XCD Cranks and Hubs

Square taper cranks are back baby! We just got some new samples from Sun XCD in Japan.

Sun XCD is a new company that was started by the original president of Suntour and other Suntour colleagues, and they're ramping up to start producing top quality, traditional style components for touring and randonneuring.

These cranks use a traditional french style 50.4 BCD with interchangeable spiders for 110/74bcd and 130/74bcd chainrings.

They're also making these classic high flange hubs. The bearings are sealed cartridge style. Works with Sram/Shimano style cassettes, including the IRD Campy Conversion cassettes.

We'll be stocking these as soon as they're available. Stay tuned for more details.
